Javljanje za radio Slovenija za oddajo Gori doli naokoli – Letenje v Kazahstanu, 30.10.2009

Translate

Dolga noč je bila ko smo potovali iz Kitajskega Urumqija v kazahstansko Almato. Z avtobusom smo potovali 24 ur, vendar nič spali, čeprav smo imeli postelje na avtobusu. Razlog je bil v cesti, ki je bila v gradnji ali v tako slabem stanju, da smo kar odskakovali iz postelj ko je avtobus zapeljal čez luknjo. Vendar sva preživela. V naslednjih dveh tednih sva bila v družbi pilotov jadralnih padal iz celotne bivše Sovjetske zveze, ki so prišli na Kazahstansko državno prvenstvo in odprto prvenstvo bivših republik Sovjetske zveze.

Altai Koks - pomeni gorovje Altai in Koks - Premog ali Kokain

Ljudi, ki sva pred tem spoznala na poti čez Rusijo, sva zopet srečala. Tudi tisti, ki naju pred tem niso poznali so naju sprejeli za svoje. Najina slovenščina se je spoprijateljila z ruščino in potem sva se počutila ko del velike družine.

Težko je verjeti, da nekdo 14000km od tvojega doma pripada isti družini – Slovanom. Kako velika družina. Letenje v Kazahstanu, ki je ena izmed držav z največjimi zalogami nafte na svetu je bil poseben izziv.

UP Edge na Kazahstan Championship 2009

Vzletišče na dobrih 2000m nadmorske višine je izgledalo zelo obetavno, vendar je bilo treba hribe zapustiti, saj tam ni bilo kaj prida termičnega dviganja in se znajti na ravnini. Polja, mesta, ceste in redke reke so bili zalogovniki termike, ki smo jih uporabljali medtem, ko smo leteli proti obratnim točkam, ki nam jih je določil organizator. Nič kaj enostavno ni leteti na ravnini, saj oba prihajava iz hribovitih krajev Slovenije, ki ponujajo letenje v hribih. Nikoli si nisem predstavljal, da se lahko na sredi ravnine pojavi ogromen termični steber, ki te ponese na 3200m.

Letenje v skupini prek ravnine

Zemlja postane bolj okrogla in ogromna polja sestavljajo vzorce, ki se jih kar ne moreš nagledati. Med drugim nam je uspelo odleteti nov kazahstanski rekord 70 km.

an smo pričeli s tekom okoli bazena z mrzlo vodo v katerega smo nato skočili in odplavali dve dolžini. Uuuu, kako je prijalo! Na dan mojega rojstnega dne so me odnesli izpred šotora v bazo, kjer smo se zjutraj dobivali in me presenetili s torto in šampanjcem.

Druscina iz cele Rusije pod imenom Medicinski Bratje, ki so celo poletje potovali in leteli po Rusiji - 'Medbratje' rules!!!

Praznovanje se je nadaljevalo zvečer, potem ko smo predčasno zaključili zadnji dan tekmovanja zaradi nevihte. S tem se je tudi zaključilo najino bivanje v Kazahstanu.

Bivouac flying with Vitaly from Russia

Prevedi

30^th October

Because of lots of stupid problems in Bir and no permission to fly from Billing I've decided to go by car to 360, a place with a big shit on the top and to start there and no coming back Bir till all stupid problems will be solved. So I've taken all my equipment for bivouac flight. I gonna fly to Bir and come back to 360 and sleep there. But after Billing was reached I've decided to go a bit far. How was me surprised when I've met Today and Sasha already sitting on a top of a ridge – these are the best company for bivouac I can ever imagine! So dreams came true I decided to land to them but it was not so simple.

Vitaly Shendrik from Krasnoyarsk

I spent a lot of time trying to do these: go down for 200 meters then slowly soaring up. When I've landed at last I was very happy! And I was very happy to see faces of Today and Sasha there! Today and Sasha have all necessary to do long bivouacs flights so it wasn't a problem to them to cook, to make tea. Pakistani tea is awesome! And I never eat so tasty noodles! So the evening was very nice the company was the best. The night was not so good as evening because it was very cold and my sleeping bag is for the 0*C temperature only (extreme temperature) I was afraid a bit of damaging my glider so I just lay on it and no cover with it.

Rest before flying to Dharamsala

So now I know that it is better to damage glider a bit then be frozen and wake up every hour looked the time on my cell phone, hopping it is 6 am but there was 1,2,3, and so on. Today is 31^st October and I hope that we've reached Daramsala and there I've got a good sleep. In the morning a men – shepard come to us and was very interested with our flying equipment and he even measured paraglider with his stick.

So, please do not pay attention on my grammar and sintax mistakes, just my minds and thoughts!

See you!!!

UP published: Travel report from Sasa and Tadej - Mongolia

Slovenski prevod...

As regular readers will know, UP friends Sasa and Tadej from Slovenia are on a monster trip around Asia with their paragliders. Here's a story about their trip around Mongolia, with stunning images as usual!

Lake, mountains, peace and wind...in the middle of nowhere...Mongolia

After a busy Beijing Mongolia will be the place where we will escape away from the big cities. We have thirty days’ visas to spend in the country of blue skies. We plan to organize ourselves by renting a car and travel different places from eastern side of Mongolia to the south to Gobi up to the western and northern region. The cost of this 'duo' adventure would be way high so we rent a van together with other travelers and change our itinerary according to the plans of the group. More...

MOMO'S STORY ABOUT FLYING BIVOUAC IN INDIAN HIMALAYA

Momo flying with the bird

Tadej took off just after me from Billing. Luiz was no where in sight so we decided to go West as decided before. It was a tough day with low cloudbase (if any) but we managed to reach Daramshala together (after Tadej's „trip“ to the big face below Matherhorn, ha, ha).

I thought I was on the ground in Daramshala but (actually both of us) we manage to climb up the ridge, the Friends chai shop in the view and Tadej decided to land in the f..... nowhere, oKay, landing at 2600meters on Triund ridge, beautiful place sourounded by rocks and green grass, the moon peak just above , half moon and chapatis frying on the rock above fire... what else do you want?

Ha,ha,...

Himalayan Paragliding Open 2009 is cancelled

Hello Pilot,

We are sincerely sorry to inform that due to ‘Political reasons’ the State Government has refused to support the ‘Himalayan Paragliding Open 2009 - pre world Cup’ event and hence the organizers have no choice but to cancel the event. The State Government and the tourism department have even banned ‘Free-flying’ in Bir-Billing.
We regret the inconvenience.

Best regards,
